Import Tips

Verify yarn number using official nm calculation (meters/kg /1000 x singles) post-sizing removal to confirm 52-80 nm range

Provide mill test certificates proving uncombed fibers, unbleached finish, no mercerization, and >=85% cotton content

Avoid retail packaging; ship in bulk cones or beams to prevent reclassification under retail yarn headings
